Sorry, you come off as a "flake" in your posts. It's fine to have certain standards, but your list is going to severely limit the available pool of dating material. First focus on quality - the outer qualities can initially be altered with time and $$, no amount of time and money will ever change someone's inner qualities. Looks fade, what is left behind is what you will have to put up with every second you are with that person. You're young now, but at some point things will start to deteriorate on your facade that no amount of money can fix - when the shoe is on the other foot, will you be so critical then? In other words, take a good look in the mirror, honey.
In that case, as long as he is meeting most of the basic qualities on the list or the main ones, then is ok.
I'm never going to go off the way of being with a good man with feeling but him being nothing in life (ex: a high school drop-out that knows nothing). The only time I've ever seen an extreme version of this happening was in the disney movie Aladdin. Off course in real life, this would rarely happen unless the girl is very young and is clueless like in my case with my ex bf. He only got me due to lack of experience and age.
Eventually I do want to get into a relationship and finish my major. Apart from wanting to become the owner of a corporation this is my simple list of what I'm currently looking towards a man. My requirements have been updated and it's not the same as when I was 18-22 years old (I'm 26 now)
Qualities
1) Handsome European (not just a merely attrative 6/10 in looks but the top) 2) Career-minded like me 3) Likes traveling
4) Great personality and isn't into the sex double standard.... overall is a nice person
5) No party animal, stud nor one that drinks and/or smokes heavily
6) Wants marriage but NO KIDS
Nice list, but if I saw your advert, I wouldn't respond simply because your goals of wanting to become a owner of a corporation means that you wouldn't have any time left over for me. Owners of successful corporations work 10, 12+ hour days 6-7 days a week.
It's just not fair laychick. If you're gone all day and late into the night, what exactly do YOU bring to the relationship table? What's even the point of getting married under such circumstances?

Seriously, I've helped 3 people start companies, and it sucks. Only 1 of them succeeded.

Lists are pre-made excuses for failure. Just meet people, date the guys who are fun to spend time with, and stay with the one you like.

My husband. It's usually abbreviated to dear husband... DH. How could you have missed this in the Relationship forum??
Or, if I am in a passive/aggressive mood..... damn husband.

Congrats OP, you made a list for basically no man to ever be able to fulfill. You'll probably be alone a while.
If you really want to "own a corporation", wouldn't 99.9% of the people you knew be "below" your league? You expect to never date at or below your level, yet you expect a man to lower his standards to you?
I hate to break it to you, but there is a real power dynamic in relationships for men and women. If you look at any "power" couple, one of them usually holds higher power. You really can't have two ridiculously career oriented people in terms of the business world (OK, it could happen, but you have to admit it's rare). No matter male/female execs in my company (and mine is just a 10,000 person company, imagine more), the one's who are married have a spouse who is willing to move with them and completely give up everything they knew. When you move from Europe to the US, back and forth, across the US as well, it's just a struggle no matter what.
Someone will be "below" your level or you will be below theirs. I think you are better off eliminating the whole idea that there are these levels and seeking what it is you truly want in life. Your list sounds like your ideal business partner. Maybe that's what you need.
